  I am really digging this wine with a little bottle age. The lemon and gooseberry I noted on younger bottles is more muted, but this has a crisp and silky mouthfeel with a good mineral streak down the backbone. The wine finishes clean and dry; lingering for some time. Very enjoyable.

  This has developed nicely in the bottle in the nine months since the last bottle. The color has developed and turned a medium straw color. Nose is crisp, with notes of citrus. Dry with good acidity on the palate. The presence of wood is more noticeable than before, but very pleasant. The specific flavors on the palate escape me now. I enjoyed this both with food and without.

  Citrus notes and reminds you of the New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc's that are popular now.

  Nearly colorless. Lovely nose of lemon and gooseberry. A little thin on the palate after the nose, but still crisp and clean with slight mineral notes and the lemon and gooseberry carrying over from the nose. Crisp, but fairly thin, medium-length finish. A very nice SA SB, but lacking a punch in the palate. Nonetheless, we will enjoy the rest of the bottles over the summer months to come.
